Via Scoop.it – Today’s Transmedia Woman
WCNTV Commentary:Today’s Transmedia Women selects Arianana Huffington and the Huffington Post for inspiring me 11 months ago to become a blogger. First the WCN Transmedia Brandcasting Report to spread the word about monetizing Streaming Video and killing the 30 Second Commercial and Pre-rolls on the web. But now Today’s Transmedia Women to provide a voice and better Customer Experience for Women at large. Mostly as a Father having watched Miss Representation on OWN I had two choices remain quiet and join the Boys Club or think of my daugthers and the type of world I want to live in and leave them. So Today’s Transmedia Women is a new publication that embraces the tenants of Transmedia Storytelling and Transmedia Brandcasting. Its Hyper Cool, Hyper Transparent and so Cool and Transparent that you can recommend it to others. Thanks Arianna for inspiring these publictions. P.S. Would love to work with you to find the Top 10 Transmedia Women of 2011/2012 and profile them in both our publications. That would be a honor. Jay O’Conner Chairman & CEO WCNTV.

Via Scoop.it – Miss Represented
WCNTV Commentary: Well it seems you can recommend your BFF for a Job, but its up to the BFF to hold their own. Gayle King has not only done that but she has learned the craft well and is a Transmedia Women in her own right. Very Good Move CBS and not because she is Oprah‘s Girl. That can open doors sure, maybe get you a great table at the latest hot spot. But Gayle is a formatible force in her own Right and its good to see the media to get one right. Charilie Rose is Smart but Gayle offers Smarts and may I say someone I would not mind waking up to in the Morning. Well that was before having to get up at the Crack of Dawn as Meridith Vieira told Pierce Morgan. We wish her well and say Go Girl. A great move is to plan a Transmedia Storytelling Segment starting with @TransmediaWomen which was created because of Miss Represented for my Daughers and the women in media and in my life at large. Jay O’Conner Chairman & CEO WCNTV. Charlie Rose and Gayle King, joined by Erica Hill, will take on “Today” and “Good Morning America” starting Jan. 9. CBS News’s new, as-yet-unnamed morning program will debut Jan. 9 and will star PBS interviewer Charlie Rose at 7 a.m. and Oprah BFF Gayle King at 8, the network officially announced Tuesday. “The Early Show” holdover Erica Hill will join Charlie in the first hour, when the program focuses more on hard news for the full hour.Via www.washingtonpost.com
